statements. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations 
and projections about future events. Actual results could differ materially from 
those discussed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Factors 
that could cause actual results to differ from those implied by the 
forward-looking statements include: general economic and market conditions; 
Allied's ability to continue to recruit and retain flexible healthcare staff; 
Allied's ability to enter into contracts with local government social services 
departments, NHS Trusts, hospitals, other healthcare facility clients and 
private clients on terms attractive to Allied; the general level of demand for 
healthcare and social care; dependence on the proper functioning of Allied's 
information systems; the effect of existing or future government regulation of 
the healthcare and social care industry, and Allied's ability to comply with 
these regulations; the impact of medical malpractice and other claims asserted 
against Allied; the effect of regulatory change that may apply to Allied and 
that may increase costs and reduce revenues and profitability; Allied's ability 
to use net operating loss carry forwards to offset net income; the effect that 
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may have on our 
dollar-denominated results of operations; and the impairment of goodwill, of 
which Allied has a substantial amount on the balance sheet, may have the effect 
of decreasing earnings or increasing losses. Other factors that could cause 
actual results to differ from those implied by the forward-looking statements in 
this press release include those described in Allied's most recently filed SEC 
documents, such as its most recent annual report on Form 10-K, all quarterly
